Prime - The event was fun, but too small (only one block of festivities) to make a day of the festivities. The high point was definitely having my eyes opened to Cafe Zaiya. While the grilled fatty pork was pretty money (crisp, charred edges and entirely unapologetic strips of fat), it couldn't compare to the fresh yakimochi Zaiya was selling for $1 a piece at their stall :) TOFU CHEESECAKE?

It made me think back to a lot of comfort foods my mom would make or just things we would get when visiting family in Hawaii, which has a big Japanese population. The fatty grilled pork mentioned in the blog sounds like heaven on a stick -- as I'm sure it was! What an amazing event that must have been.
